"What a BEAST!!!!!!"

I got an old "Dick tracy" style chair. I removed the seet from the rocking machinisum. I got sum 1,1/2inch "L" chanle with hols in it(Like big child erector-set) from the local heardwear stoor. made a frame to suport a car seet. I found this subaru bucket seet with lumbar suport. Now this is a chair. I realy wanted a ferari seet, with five point harnis.

BTW, no I havn't played Lock ON, I like the way the tanks moove in battle zone...especaly with auto-leveling disabled. I can run up the side of a moutan, pool back on the stick and fire at furies upside down. realy neat trick to keep them in the target sight.

Believe me Lock On is worth it it is the best fighter jet sim ever to hit the shelves its really complicated. Also good is IL2-Stormovich and not flying games, Viet-Cong is awesome, cant forget Battlefield 1942 with Desert Storm Mods, hmmm.... Halo is cool. Oh yeah Call Of Duty is a great game.. i remember POD that was cool You are right MS Simulator was pretty carp! I might have to have a look into getting an old car seat and make one of those chairs. U might have to post a pic of that chair for me, Zarcondeegrissm What are u playing atm wia?

RPG?!?!!? LOL the only thing remotely close to an RPG i play is Prince Of Persia. Thats a cool game! Everything else just bores me i got Neverwinter Nights that came with my Graphics Card but i never bothered. I played a few of those Final Fantasy games, they became great coasters!!!! now then... Ravenshield thats a game. My friend is that 1337 he could win competitions if he entered he gets offered to join 4 or 5 clans everyday! so he made his own LOL!!! yes homeworld II is good i got that aswell. i better go to bed now.

when it comes to RPG's, I prefer Werewolf: The Apocalypse (White Wolf), Vampire: The Masquerade (White Wolf), Mage: The Ascension, rifts, etc. D&D (TSR) is'nt bad considering it's hack and slash biose, evin with the player expantion books. however it is a GOOD game to start with.

In my opinion, When it comes to RPG's, the computer can't replace the storytellers job of bending rools to acomidate a spessific groop of players, and the bottom line fun. the story line unfolds acording to the players charicters actions, revealing a difrent story every time.

thus a good story telley simply gives a plot, and the players decide how there going to deal with there charicters suroundings. most computer RPG's that I've sean (including finle fantisy) have a single track plot, with a single ending (win or die / stagnation till a cheet or walk threw is found). RPGing is all about the imadgination and creativity of unvaling a story, soly on the path the player decides to take, not the story teller.

until computer based RPG's plots becum les linier, I will stick with the Dice and Charicter sheet.

I'm not suprised with what meech has sead about computer based RPG's as well. All I can say is pick up an RPG book, get famillure with the rools. rember there a guide lines, not limitations of sum one elses story. I my self have come across sum story tellers that can't think beyond the rools of the book, and others that throw everything at you to keep you on there story line. RPG's are for fun, not to play out some one elses story. I engoy RPG's mostly because of how players tend to take there owne path, and creat a story as a groop.

P.S.
When I when't to get an E-mail account at yahoo, in the service. Every combination of David, Clifton, Allen had already been taken. So I gave my first charicters name (a wizard in D&D) a shot, and it's been zarcon dee grissom (zar) ever since.

BAH!!!! RPGS!!! what u need is some first person action, shoot em ups thats the way to go, adrenaline and excitment running through the jungle in multiplayer, being the last in your team left, out numbered 4 - 1, this being a semi-final clan match, ur heart is pounding,... Thats a story for ya! get those fps into ya!!! BTW where did you learn to spell Zar?

Thatâ€™s what I like in a computer game, adrenaline rush. I reely want a sim setup, with wraparound display. That would be aswm in somthing like Amaricas Army or deltaforce. I got eyes behind my head...lol

I never was good at spelling. However I try from time to time, even confuse spellcheckers sume times.

I got a pic...cool
Thatâ€™s me, in sumersworth NH, fall 2003
I'm going to barow a digi-cam to take pics of my systems, I should have new pics on my sight by tomaro...depends how long it takes to spellcheck the page;-)

p.s. I've come to the relization that M.S. Word(tm) canâ€™t seam to do the job of checking my spelling:-(

lol, a spel checker that dose german and english would be grately apriciated.

as for the digital camera, bad news. the memory card is dead and it won't just send pics directly to the computer via USB cable. well I know what I'm buying on the 15th. I was realy hoping to start documenting this tonight.(sawb)

not to mention the power distrabution and trueUPS system. everything that can run directely on 13.8VDC, is. everything else is going to be pluged into inverters. I've curently got only one 900CCA battery, powering my reciver, headphone amp (optimus equalizer), and a cople of lights. several 1000CCA deepcycle mareen batts are on the way. this gives leaway for solor power

I've got lots of empty boxes laying around (litterly), just wating to be added to my BOINC fleet. witch I expect to be doing over the next few mounthes. these include several XT/AT boxes that I will be transforming into ATX casses. then stuffing full of crunch capable guts. top of my list is emploing an optron based PC, and moving workstation1 to the first crunch box. next I'de like to improve the jukebox a litle...It's slow responding to play-lists in winamp. then there will be additional crunch boxes. My primary objective is getting every boinc/seti packet posable out of these machines.

at curent, I'm looking at having about $100 to $200 a mounth for parts, so it is defently going to be slow going. besides I have an s10 blazer that is in despret need of help. I might just setle for aditional athlonXP systems. depends how things pan out the next few mounthes.

YAYAYAYAYAYAA im so happy today i got my Packard Bell Fast Media Remote off ebay. No more getting up to pause dvd's or getting up to skip mp3's while laying in bed (the shutdown button comes in handy too) And i really love the mouse button aswell quite coolos and all for only $13.00 AUD Apparently Packard Bell "manufactured 2,000,000 of these before they went belly-up." I reckon its awesome, a must for the bedroom PC! so u can add that to my system

Theres more, the mini tower came with its "well used" Micron case, with missing panels etc, so I moved it into this free tower i was also given. Micro doesnt do the standard mobo pin assignments, instead they have this block of wires for led, hdd, power, etc, so that hadda go with, hence the power button on front is just for show.

You reach inside and press or hold the little red button to power on/off

Heres more fun stuff with my computer
cheap KVM, with monitor, 1 ps2, and serial (I only use it to share the monitor, have separte keyboard and mouse for both machines)
